Using the Air Compressor

Using the Air Compressor

WARNING: Fire hazard

The compressor is designed for short term operation only. Operating the compressor over an extended period of time will cause the compressor unit to overheat which could lead to fire. Allow the compressor to cool down for 10 minutes after each 10 minutes of continuous operation.

WARNING: Risk of personal injury or damage to equipment

Never leave the compressor unattended while in operation. Keep out of reach of children. The compressor is capable of inflating to 250 PSI. Do not exceed the recommended pressure of either the compressor or the object being inflated. If either recommended pressure is exceeded, an explosion may result.

WARNING: Risk of personal injury or damage to equipment

Never leave the compressor unattended after it has switched itself off due to overheating. It will turn on again and continue inflating when its internal temperature drops.

Turn the compressor off at the power switch after each use or any time the compressor turns off automatically.

Over-temperature Safety Protection

It is recommended that you follow the warnings and turn the compressor off for 10 minutes after every 10 minutes of operation. However, the XPower Powerpack 300 is equipped with an over-temperature safety protection feature that automatically turns the compressor off if it begins to overheat. Once the compressor cools down to its normal operating temperature it will automatically turn on again and continue inflating. You should turn the compressor off at the power switch if this safety feature engages, and allow the compressor to cool for 15 minutes before restarting.
